hp 6265us casing question

hi all! im new to the site here but i have been reading so many posts lately and it seems like an excellent site.

i have a hp 6265us and on the case there are lines (not lines per say but lines that divide the case into 2 parts) that are part of the case. on the left side, it seems to be a little raised and i noticed that if i put my fingernail under the part where the pcmia or expansion card thing is, i lift it up a little bit. it does not come apart but i am just wondering if this is normal.
i hope you can understand what i mean i couldnt think of any other way to describe the casing.

Also my second question.

on the bottom right side of the laptop (palm rest) if i press on it it creaks a little like theres an air pocket in the plastic or something. nothing is broken but i am wondering if anyone else has this. it seems stable and durable its just that it makes creaking noises.

thanks for your help

anyone?
please let me know if you need more info or pictures to be more specific.

 

regarding your second, I kind of have the same thing on my dv6365us. When you press your palm down on the right side, sometimes I hear a creaking. like you, it seems table, but i wont deny the creaking makes me a teeny bit worried about the build quality. Hopefully its not a sign of anything more faulty.

 

Both of those are pretty normal. I have both.

 

ok great thanks for reassuring me!

 

My system has the same problem and I think its poor build quality. I had to give my system into the shop for a issue I had with the WIFI and I was given a loaner. The loaner did not have this issue at all. It was also a newer system. Perhaps HP improved their build quality in the newer systems. Anyhow I called the repair shop and asked them to add that to list of things to fix. We'll see what HP does about it.
